Easy to clean and use
By mjs1027
We bought this oven online. So far, we've toasted bagels, made frozen pizza and baked potatoes in it. They've all come out perfect. Control panel is super easy to use, and the oven is easy to clean with teflon lining. Make sure this is what you want, though. Only a limited number of toaster settings (Light, Med. Light, Medium, Med. Dark, Dark) are available - none in between. There are no dials. Also, Only oven temperatures like this are available (... 275, 300, 325, 350, 375, 400, 425 ...) - none in between. You can't bake anything at 385 degrees - only 375 or 400 degrees. Also, it's a little slow to preheat. But all in all, we love it.

"Set and Forget" is a good value.......I'm satisfied
By J Brown
I've had the Set and Forget for a month now and, overall, it works pretty much as advertised.

Toast settings are accurate and produce perfect toast, although it takes a while. Baking works well as long as you are mindful that the temperature settings are up to 25 degrees low across the range, particularly on the lower rack position. This can be corrected of course by raising the temperature, or by using convection mode which more evenly distributes the heat (don't look for 450 degrees). I have not tried roasting a chicken, and probably never will. Baking a 12 inch pizza works fine, but takes longer than expected. The warm setting is a nice feature. Broiling works fine, but for some reason the instuctions don't mention keeping the door in the detent open position for broiling.

Speaking of the instructions, at one point they recommend not placing the toaster-oven inside a full size oven. Good advice I'm sure. But I must say that really got me thinking.

The exterior quality is a little cheesy. It was probably made in China,(ha ha). IT NEEDS AN INTERIOR LIGHT! I only hope that the heating elements don't become distorted as on my old Delonghi.

I would recommend it to anyone, but with the aforementioned caveats. If "Cook's Illustrated" likes it, I like it.

Did I mention an interior light?

Wow
By Michele Kovach
I bought this oven as an replacement. If you want an oven that cooks accurate this is the one for you. I have used it several times to bake brownies and several carrot cakes in a bundt pan and they have come out perfect. The toasting feature works well also. The reason I bought this oven was I like the digital temperature probe and so far it too has been accurate. I know you can buy less expensive toaster ovens, but this one is well worth the extra dollars spent.
